Fund a new action rpg.

By Anthony Gallegos

Crate Entertainment's Grim Dawn has been in development since 2010, but the team is looking to Kickstarter to help finish it. This action RPG is billed as the spiritual successor to Titan Quest, a game many of the team worked on when employed by Iron Lore entertainment. Grim Dawn uses an updated version of the Titan Quest engine and toolset, and users have been able to pre-purchase the game for some time.

No matter the outcome of the $280,000 Kickstarter goal, Crate Entertainment has every intention of releasing Grim Dawn. The point of this fundraiser is to better fund their development staff, since, as the Kickstarter description states, "only two of us are in a financial situation where we can afford to support ourselves without a salary." Without the extra cash Crate knows it "could still finish a fine little game" but feels that "there is a much greater potential that could be realized if we were more adequately funded and staffed."

To learn more about Grim Dawn, you can look at the game's official website. Or you can check out the Kickstarter, where prizes range from a digital copy of the finished game to collaborating with the team to create your own in-game side-quest.
